24HR STREAM: JUNE 8TH!

Our 24 Hour charity stream returns next month! Join Mario, Luigi, and friends for a 24 hour stream of fun-antics and fun-draising! Here's some things you can look forward to!

GAMING

Live streaming every game on Twitch! NES, SNES, N64, GCN, Wii, Wii U, Switch, Sega Genesis, CD, Dreamcast, Atari VCS, PS3, PS4, PS5, XBox One, and all the Game Boy are able to be broadcast!

TASTE TESTING

Snack Gauntlet: A collection of nearly 28 snacks from various countries. We will be trying out these "savory" snacks throughout the live on stream!

Shadows Over Loathing: Is it really that bad? We'll find out if Dark Noel's sandwich of Sugar cookies and Peppermint Sticks is as bad as they make it sound!

Root Beer Rumble: Which Root Beer will reign supreme?! Find out as we do a blind taste test of several different varieties of Root Beer!

PICKLED HERRING CHALLENGE

The taste testing doesn't stop there! If we reach $500 in donations by ebd of stream on June 9th, Mario will eat pickled herring straight out of the jar during the live stream! Never had it before, so no idea what the heck he's getting into!

GUESS THE CARTRIDGE!

Many years ago, a couple gave out NES cartridges for their wedding, with a custom label put on it. We have no idea what game it is, but we'll plug it in and see! Will anyone be able to guess the game beforehand?!

PRIZES

We will be giving away tons of prizes throughout the stream! All donors during the stream will be entered to win a special Satoru Iwata post card as a thank you! Winners will be contacted and asked to provide their address to receive the post card. Additional prize challenges done during the stream as well! Prize Hours, Finish Line Prize, and more! Prizes include classic games and Nintendo collectibles!

<Closed Insentive>

To celebrate Mar10 Day 2024 on Sunday, March 10th. We will be raffling off a sketch of Yoshi that was used in the production of the Super Mario World cartoon. Certificate of Authenticity will be included. For every $5 you donate on Mario Day, you will get an entry into the raffle! That means $20 gets you 4 entries. Winner will be chosen on March 11th. We will cover shipping, and willing to ship worldwide! Keep in mind, you can't win if you donate anonymously, cause we won't know who you are! Good Luck!
